Client Requirements

A large International Bank was to relocate from existing premises to newly refurbished offices located in the City of London.

Following the move the client required a sustainable clearance solution for the environmentally sound clearance of excess furniture and equipment that it no longer required.

Project Solution

Premier Sustain worked closely with the client and their Move Managers, Move Plan, to implement a three phase clearance service for the furniture and equipment left behind following the staff move. Phase one was the clearance of 150 staff at an internal move in, phase two and three were the clearances of 180 staff and 600 staff from two other sites.

Premier Sustain worked with its trade partners and charities co-ordinator to maximise the resale values of the furniture items and ensure that all items that couldn’t be resold but could be donated via The Giving Back Project were identified and distributed accordingly. This approach was supported by a zero to landfill clearance of other unwanted furniture and equipment carried out by Premier Sustain.

Premier Moves delivered this multi phase move ensuring sufficient resources were available through each element of the move to deliver the schedule of moves within the given timescales enabling business to continue as normal.

Project Feedback

A significant volume of unwanted items were resold or donated. This reuse, combined with maximum recycling of non-reusable items enabled the client to achieve a carbon saving of over 243 ₂ (e) tonnes for this sustainable clearance. Over 2000 items of furniture were resold or donated to support local charities via The Giving Back Project.
